Ideas Into Reality has been created to inspire everyone to take action to turn their ideas into reality, no matter what experience they have, where they live or who they think they are right now.
On this journey, we will be introducing you to founders that have taken their tiny flicker of an idea and done what it takes to bring it to reality.
We will be asking them to share the real, behind the scenes story…what triggered their idea in the beginning, what it has taken to get them where they are now, and how has their idea morphed along the way, who has helped them on their journey, and what were some of the pitfalls they encountered, what is coming up next for them, and what key lesson have they learned that they want to share with you, to encourage you to make the choice to leap and start on your own journey of bringing your idea into reality.
Each week, we will also take a few extra minutes to dig into the ‘how’ of some of those lessons, so that you can feel more confident... in what to actually do... when you start to take action on your idea.
Ideas Into Reality is hosted and produced by the team behind Canvas Coworking and Startup Toowoomba, so we will be talking to founders from our local community in regional Queensland, as well as some of the interesting folk that we have met during our travels around the globe.
There are millions of stories waiting to be told, and many many millions more that have yet to evolve.
We want to fan the flames of those ideas that are yet to see the light of day.

Today's guests are on a mission to save the planet, one microalgae at a time...and they are starting with the superfood, Spirulina. How? Well, they have devised a way to make spirulina taste good...yep, that's right, tasty spirulina that happens to also have even better nutritional values than the yucky stuff you are used to. Anna Hendra is the founder of Ocean Orchards and along with her partner, Adrian Spierings is part of the Flair Incubator family. I am delighted to have them with me today to share the story of their journey so far, in bringing their idea into reality.

Interview with Natalie D'Alessandro
This week I have the incredible pleasure of introducing you to Natalie D'Alessandro. Her story is inspiring on many levels, some, like saving the planet I feel strongly aligned with, others, like having rooms full of clothing and accessories are less familiar to me, yet over the last few months of having Natalie in the Flair Incubator program, I have learned that there is an incredibly close association between these topics...and Natalie is a driving force to create a better solution to bring sustainable fashion into the minds, hearts and hands of people all over the world through Her Wardrobe Markets.

With a strong focus on sustainability and social good, Katharina, along with her partner, Reiner is building a strong foundation for her business with integrity and value-based decision making at the core. I encourage you to pop your headphones in, grab your fur-baby and take a walk to the park as you listen to this week's episode.
